I am happy. After Julis hit helmet to helmet I was pissed off... especially when he argued about it and then tried to get the crowd noise up seconds later.

Very impressive win by the cheeseheads... my bro woulda been happy.

Holy Cow fun GNU, I did give ya a wave, cold cold cold ... wow what fun. I can't lose this SB season, I love both teams ... no doubt Steelers will pull it off however. Raptor, if he got away with those things then shame on him. I only know the police all looked into it and toss it all out as unfounded. However, if he did, shame on him. If people were just trying to set him up to steal his money, shame on them. My only experience is positive very positive so can't comment.

Police didn't find it unfounded they decided it would be too hard to get a conviction seeeing as ben had cops on the payroll as bodygaurds and it would be thier word against some poor student that they got drunk.

It will be a great game though and its a shame you can't go.How does one get tickets to a bowl game anyway?

Tickets are impossible, You really need to know someone. I never ask, although I was given tickets each time my kid was there but they consider them part of the team. Each player and coach are given 10 tickets. However all their families want to go and their close friends. I always felt if someone gave me the tics I would be taking the seats away from someone's family so I didn't accept. I was offered every time the Pats played as I was on the charity foundation with Brady and a close friend of the offensive co-ordinator.. never accepted, never thought it was right to do so. Only if someone wasn't going to go and had extra then i would accept. Even then it is hard because they sell for thousands. My first thought would be sell them and give the money to the foundation.

Raptor we can read those articles for our selves and they do not back up what you were saying. A twenty year old, in a place where the legal drinking age is ends up in a unisex bathroom in a bar that according to the article you posted was racially somewhat segregated until recently.

It seems that the incident has shone a light on lax law enforcement in that small city, deservedly so.

There in no evidence that the cops were on Ben's "payroll." It was his birthday and he was on a drunken trip from his house on Lake Ocanee 30 miles to the north. He wasn't running an organized crime syndicate in a Chicago.

Well all my pals from Wisconsin are emailing me ... this is going to be a great game I think, maybe one of the best all time. Sure hope it is .. I am thrilled .. I love both teams so I can only win this year. I give the Steelers defense the edge however, their O line is not what it was in the past, that will give guys like Clay Matthews a shot to shut big Ben down. The Steeler defense will put pressure on Rodgers, but you know with Driver and Jennings they will have completions. You can't completely shut that team down. The game I think comes down to defense and if Rodgers is hot, it will swing the Packers way if no turnovers occur. If the Steelers running game and defense click, it will be the 7th trophy for Pittsburgh. Going to be a great game.

Now in regard to Big Ben, as I said he has been wonderful to myself and to so many others. I never pay attention to rag magazines or web articles. I gotta go with the cops. He is no saint, there are few in the NFL or anywhere else for that matter that are saints. But he is no rapist. Likes to party yes, likes girls and beer, yes .. stupid action on his part playing into that setup .. yes ... criminal .. no way my opinion anyway. Maybe he has learned to watch what he does and says and who he is with .. I hope. I read a lot of BS about Tommy also that I knew for a fact wasn't true .. people like reading the bad

Buffalo Chicken Wings, Pizza, and chips and dip ... the Superbowl tradition. I have a bit of a problem here at home. My other half loves the Packers. Yesterday I was informed that if I route for the Steelers this time around, my chances of getting laid again would be slim to nil. To which I immediately replied "Go Packers" LOL ....

Yee Gads, I now have to be a closet Steeler fan, hide my true feelings for the game. I wonder if I can pull it off.

I see what you were saying now. Not that the cops were backing off because they were on the payroll but that the other cops could not get a conviction because other cops on the payroll were lying for Ben. That is even worse.

Didn't the article say that the incident happened in a unisex restroom? If Ben, the girl and the off duty police bodyguards all were in that restroom, it must have been quite a party!!

By the way, if it was he said/she said, did it cross your mind that the investigators might have found mature policemen more credible than a drunk under-aged girl.

It's gonna be a great game. As I live in NB, I only get to see certain games throughtout the season. I can tell you anything you want to know about the Pats and quite a bit about some other teams. But, watching the pregame stuff... wow... both teams have so many great players. From what I have seen so far, I think the Packers have the edge today, but today is another "any given Sunday".

It may come down to what I like best about this game. I've said it many times. Yankee football is as much a game of chess as it is of physical prowess. And the stories of the head coaches is a soap opera in itself.

I'll be cheering for The Steelers but all I really want is to watch and exciting game. On accounta I have my Pats hoody on and my football slippers too. (After beer #X, I take the slippers off on accounta I don't need another "old football injury".)

Jesus H. Christ! I called 310-3030 and Greco said a 2 square foot, no crust, party pizza with the works would be $29.92 delivered. Add a couple of bucks for a tip and that's 64 cans of Campbell's soup... 128 meals! If I hadn't had those beers, I would have gone to Sobeys and splurged on some soda crackers (on sale for $2 a box... an exellent deal these days) to go with my vegetable soup that is now on the stove.

After all, it's Super Bowl 45 for me and going crazy with the crackers is just once a year... and I wouldn't eat them all tonight... although, I do have peanut butter and skim milk... oooo... that would be a decadent snack for the game. I even have Kraft cheese slices.

Shoulda got some crackers.
